Homemade GF Breakfast Flake Cereal

AAAAAgggghhhhhh! Twelve days stuck inside with no school respite!

Wilderness Snow Shelters is the topic of internet interest today. I've used up every other search topic and I'm reaching the desperate point. I swear it's been weeks since I've seen the world and had a normal schedule, and here we go, snow shelters. Did you know adventurers have managed to live 13 days stuck in a show shelter?

TOMORROW MAKES THIRTEEN!! GETME A SHOW SHELTER! Thirteen days inside is enough!!!!

I'm out of cereal and craving a bowl to eat with frozen blueberries. My favorite is Mesa Sunrise by Nature Path, but I'll give in and eat a bowl of Chex if that's all I have home. Yup, you guess it, I'm out of Chex too. I guess I'll make my delicious homemade cereal again. It's not like I don't have the time.

Maybe I'll make gluten-free potato skins tomorrow. Give me something to look forward to...

Cabin Pizza

Can't stand one more minute of staying indoors! Four days stuck inside and no respite in sight? Imagine it while you sing the newest facebook rendition of OKLAHOMA's state song.

SNOW...klahoma...where the cold fronts sweepin' down the plain. And the piles of sleet, beneath your feet follow right behind the freezing rain! We know we belong to the land. But it sure could use more salt and sand. That's why we say...WHOA! We're sliding the other way...YIKES! We're only sayin'...you're slick as snot SNOWkl...ahoma, SNOWklahoma, SNOW-K L A stay Homa M a!

Homemade Pizza, it's my only hope to salvagea little sanity.

GF Sweetheart Tea Cookies

Two days off school for weather issues and everyone is going stir crazy with cabin fever. The blizzard would be worse without wonderful neighbors who invite you over and feed you delicious Indian food, provide delightful conversation and admire your baking.

I made shortbread linzer cookies and all were eaten! That means they weren't just being polite, but that gluten-free really has won the taste test! The Living Without recipe is a winner! (I did halve the recipe to taste test it--and it still made a lot.)

I used a melon baller to make uniform balls of shortbread dough and then pressed them flat between two pieces of wax paper dusted with rice flour--they peeled off nicely. Then I cookie cut a heart out of one cookie, layered it atop and dropped a dollop of jelly into the centers. Baked at 350 for about 15 minutes.

GF Shortbread from Living Without

Freezer Thieves! When the boys sneak the peanut butter covered cookies from the freezer and snarf them up, I have to make more to slather with peanut butter and coat with chocolate for the Girl Scout Do-Si-Do's.

I tested a different recipe for shortbread, Living Without's recipe. It is far and away the winner for taste!

These shortbread cookies come out beautiful and taste delicious. Maybe the plain ones will stave off the guys cookie starvation while the peanut butter hardens.
